The Adavu Project supports adult survivors of modern slavery and human trafficking in the West Midlands.

﻿Modern slavery is complex. It includes debt bondage, forced labour, and in the UK, it often involves human trafficking.Human trafficking is:

the movement of a person from one place to another

into conditions of exploitation,

using deception, coercion, the abuse of power or the abuse of someone’s vulnerability.

You can be a victim of trafficking even if you agreed to being moved.﻿

SURVIVOR SUPPORT

Adult survivors of human trafficking are often particularly vulernable to poverty, homelessness, or re-exploitation. As well as needing practical and financial resources, they often lack supportive relationships and the necessary confidence, knowledge and skills to be able to take the steps they need to to access help. Adavu offers a package of integrated and ongoing support to help survivors to take the next steps towards developing life skills, accessing benefits, training, education, and employment as well as access to trauma and therapeutic provision.

The Adavu Project is a project of the Birmingham Methodist District Registered Charity Number 1134167
